the' organization of a system by which it trade can in a moment_be placed at the mercy of the operators of the whole country,.and the supply of an article of com merce be stopped at the signal .of a few discontented men. However-desirouS we may have shown our selves to relieve the distresses of the Manufacturers, we are sorry to have seen the working of this mischievous system exemplified in the destruction of 'machinery, and in the numerous other excesses which have been committed. by designing men, who have .misled the starving population of the manufac turing districts. The questions which have sug gested themselves on this occasion, are, how do these operatives communicate ? Whence come their supplies ?. The tailors notoriously assist all their fellow men who strike to uphold the " rights" of the journ e y men , and it is tOlerably well ascertained that, upon any extraordinary occasion, thirty thousand can he called upon for weekly contributions in aid of the disaffected. This mode of communication is too often by the means of their Friendly. or Trade Societies, and we have but little doubt that every combination of mag situde-coUld he traced to such sources. It should be remembered that the avowed object of most Friendly Societies is to support men in sickness and old age, and the perversion of funds to other purposes is, in • all probability, an offence at common law ; therefOre thesC matters are generally conducted very quietly: bitt however secret the affairs of their concerns may be kept in general, accident has brought to light a cir cumstance which speaks volumes. We have mislaid Our report, and cannot supply accurately from memory, the statement which was made in a late Friendly So ciety case, but we know that Mr. HARMER, in re questing a. Magistrate's .assistance to reinstate a member in a club whence, he bad been excluded for non-payment of certain contributions, showed that his client resisted the payment on just grounds, viz. the perversion of the funds of the club ; mutt° prove this, he. produced an account in which three items appeared,' which should open the. eyes of the GoVernment as well as the people, to the wretched system that has been brought about, not more by the depravity of the leaders than by the encouragement held out by injudicious supporters of the operatives. Th e items to which we allude, were nothing more nor les4 than a sum of money " paid to a Committee on Combination Laws ;" 'a second sum, not much under 1001.." paid to Bradford Union ;" and a third tun, we think 651. paid for shares in the Trades' Newspaper; and all this too from the funds of a Society held tinder the protection of the Legislature for support ingits members in sickness or old age. Mr. HARMER, who conducted the case, exposed the infamy of this ,perversion in strong language, and this circumstance all .probability is but one of a thousand of. the same nature, for it is well known, that the Bradford Union commanded an immense fund at one period, and that the Trades Newspaper was 'avowedly supported by the " Operatives." It appears therefore to - us necessary, that prompt measures be instantly adopted to correct the evil; and we would suggest the propriety of appointing a Coin tni.ssion, even before the rising of the Parliament, with such powers as may be deemed necessary, to sit and act, during the Recess, as circumstances may dictate, and report to the next Parliament the result of an inquiry into the extent of the mischief which thus .threatens the best interests of the community. The John Bull, in defending the system of cruelty to slaves, or rather in apologizing for its infliction, so far as branding goes, says, " now with respect to the bodily pain of branding ; when it teas permitted, it should be recollected that it was done with a silver brand heated in spirits of wine." This refinement is something like hanging a man with A silken rope, or shooting him with a silver bullet. Letters have been received this morning from Smyrna, dated April 3, at which time his Majesty's 41 44 Cambrian, Zebra, and Alacrity, were 'in that port. Every thing remained quiet. There were re- Ports of French and Italian vessels having been at tacked by Greek pirates in the Archipelago ; but no r-nglish vessel had been molested. We received German Papers this morning, from which we make the following extracts. The article respecting Sir HUDSON LOWE is interesting : CODISTANTIWOPLZ, MAY ,11 Since the delivery of the Russian Ultimatum on the 6th, n 07 4: thing further has occurred on this subject. Mr. Stratford Can' -Y zing continues his negociations in favour of the Greeks, with the greatest activity, hut he seems to be far from the goal. Prom, the Archipelago we hear of hardly any thing but the capture of tiropesa ships by Greek pirates. Commodore Hamilton has warned the ptglish Captains of merchant ships not to sail except under the protection of men of war. SMYRNA, APRIL a Sir H. Lowe who is here on his way to India, was near falling by the hind of a fanatic Frenchman, who probably meant, according to his notions, to avenge his country. The French Goistilar Agent, Perry, gut into the house where Sir Hudson .resided, and finding the doors of the apartments shut, he broke .them open and destroyed all the effects of Sir Hudson, who was fortunately absent on board a ship. Perry was armed .with aaflger, and. In his blood-thirsty rage, declared aloud that he should' find means to get at the murderer of Napoleon, his former. master. He was arrested, and is now kept in strict confinement in the Consulate. Since this event, Sir Hudson has remained on board the English ship. ROME, APRIL 15. Baron Vander Vivcrs, a native of Ghent, died here lately in th e sixty-sixth year of his age. Ile has left his fine collection of l ISS , the fruit of his historical and philological researches to the library of the Jesuits, so that they are probably lost to the public. °4 ° of the latest subjects of his learned invest►gations was the tr agical history of Cenci. The Prince of Canino (Lucien Boo aaParte) has arrived here on a visit to his aon-ln-law Prince Gabriella. Princellutera, who is appointed Neapolitan Ambas sad4 r So St. Petersburgh, has passed through here on his way to `" a iNis. An the Prince is a foreigner, this embassy has excited "toe disaatiafactiois among the Neapolitan Nobility. The sub , ecriptiona for rebuilding the Church of St. Paul amount to about 148,0 " seudil of which only 18,009 are contributed by private individuals, and the remainder by corporate bodies. This is a proof of the scarcity of money in the Roman States. BERLIN, MAY 21. The following is a very remarkable law,case.—A person of the name of Salfield, who held an office in Hesse Darmstadt, and who has been dead above 200 years, lent, in 1622, to the city of Worms the sum of 5,000 dollars, at 5 per cent. His wife survived him. After her death, the heirs of the husband claimed these 5,000 dol lars, but the heirs of the wife disputed the Claim. The proceedings were protracted to an immense length by the ingenious lawyers, and at length the two parties came to a compromise for the divi sion of the fortune. But now the city made difficulties about the repayment. The storms and revolutions . which follow ed caused the affairs to fall into obliviou. But the heirs of the wife have lately come forward again, and the, tribunal has decided that if the heirs of the husband, whose residence is uu known, do not appear within two months, the heirs of the wife shall receive the principal and the arrears of interest for 200 years. • THE FUNDS. CITY, MAY 15 There has been a considerable improvement in the price of Public Securities during the last week, Consols having been done at 79. In the early part of the week very large purchases were made by a poweiful party, who appear to have changed their ac counts, and to be speculating now for a rise. A great deal of Stock was carried on to the July account, at 3-16 tbs and per Cent. continuation. From this circumstance it is apprehended that there will be no scarcity of Stock on the ensuing account day. There has also been a quantity of Consols thrown upon the market by an eminent Insurance Company, which has materially altered the complexion of the Moupy s Market: The closing price of Saturday was 78ii, and as.aln‘of what little interest the pub lic take in Stocks, the announcement of the termination of the Burmese wars, the most important political event that has happened for a considerable time, did not make the slightest alteration. In India Stock, where one might expect a considerable improvement, the price has only risen 2 or 3 per . Cent. There has been a great deal of business doing in the Foreign Market, and the South American Securities have improved during the last week ; there has also been a little activity amongst some of the Shares, and an improvement in price, as will be seen from our daily lists. The improvement in the Colombian Stock may be traced to the circulation of a report, that it is in the contemplation of two or three commercial houses connected with South America, to club together, and pay the dividend due . in July—with what truth, we are unable to state,—but we must say, that we think it the duty of those who have so largely profited by their connexion with South . America, and whose prosperity is so identified with New States, to do every thing in their poWer to save them from the odium of not fulfilling their engagements, and also to relieve a suffering public from an apprehension that they have lent their money upon very suspicious security.

FALL OF MISSOLONGIII• Accounts have been - received this morning -.at the Colonial Office from Major-General .the Honourable FREDERICK PONSONBY, Lord High Commissioner pro temporc of the lonian Isles, which announce, that the fortress of MissolOnghi was carried by assault, on the night of the 22d and 23d ult. It ap pears. that on the 2d Ultimo, the Turkish Commanders offered terms to the Inhabitants which engaged for the safety of their lives on surrendering the town ; but these offers were peremptorily rejected. The G reek fleet under IVIIAUL Is having failed in its attempt to throw supplies into the town, and the in habitants:being reduced to the utmost distress for the ..want of provisions ; the garrison resolved upon attempting to retire, and for that pur pose made a sortie with a force of 800 men, under tn•o of their most .enterprizing Chieftains, who were to direct their efforts against , a battery on the waterside, and by that means to open a way for the rest of the inhabitants. This movement, however, had been foreseen by, the. Turks, and so tremend ous a fire was directed against the assailants, that they soon fell into confusion, and flea , in all direc . tions to the mountains for shelter. 'The alarm created! by the repulse of this advanced body was quickly corn municated to those who Succeeded ; they abandoned the positions which they had hithectoeccupied, and threw themselves in small bodies into midi defensible posts as the neighbourhood of the town presented. The Turks, in the mean time, availed theMselves of the confu- Sion into which the besieged were thrown by this failure, and carried by assault the fortifications, which, in many parts were left without defence. The town was set fire to in several places, and instant measures were taken for subduing the inhabitants, which, in the course of The night, was completely effected. The Greeks seem to have fought with a degree of obsti nacy which might have been expected from the re solution with which they have hitherto defended the place, for although upwards of three thousand are reported to have fallen in the town, and in the neighbourhood of the mountains ; only 150 are said to have been taken alive. Of the women and children a 'considerable number are stated to have destroyed themselves, or to have been drowned in the ditches adjoining to the town, but upwards of 3000 prisoners of this description are reported cap tured by the Turks. It does not appear that IBRAHIM PACISA was wounded in this assault, as various reports have for some time announced. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Po wt. - km:m.4 AL 13. —Th is morning -his Majesty'arigate Glasgow, Capt. the lion. J. A. Maude, arrived from Lisbon in fifteen days, having sailed on the 29th ult. A Portuguese line of-battle ship caine out of the Tagus at the same time, bound to the Brazils, having on board a deputation of Noblemen, who are gone thither to endeavour to prevail ,on Dun Pedro (the Emperor of Brazil), to return to his European dominions. Considerable anxiety is manifested by all ranks to know his determination upon this subject, as they consider the public quiet of Portugal to rest upon it. The Queen had-made no open endeavours to disturb the public tranquillity, though the Clergy, and, as consequently in a Catholic country, the peasantry, were decidedly in her interests. hitherto, since the death of the King, the councils of our able Ambassador, Sir Win. A`Court, have prevailed in the Regency. The presence of our squadron in the Tagus ha. no doubt contri buted, in a measure, to repress any disposition to excite commo tion. in the capital. • The Glasgow left there the Ocean, 98, Vice-Admiral Lord A. Beauclerk, Captain Sykes; Genoa, 74,• Captain W. Bathurst ; Albion, 74 , , Captain Ornmaney ; the Reynard and Lyra brigs. The Lively. frigate, Captain W. Elliott, C. B. left the Tagus on the 29th ult. for Plymouth. The Falcon had gone to Cadiz and Gibraltar, for montl- The prevalence of easterly winds had prevented any ar rivals at Lisbon from South America. We have, therefore, no news from the Brazils by this opportunity. The Glasgow passed nearly 300 sail of homeward-bound merchant ships, in the mouth of the Channel, struggling with contrary winds. None of them made the signal for assistance, or as requiring provisions or water. It is understood that the Glasgow is to refit, and proceed to the Mediterranean, to relieve the Naiad. The continuance of strong easterly winds prevents ships return ing from foreign stations from getting up Channel. —The Dryad frigate, Hon. Captain R. Rodney, (which was under orders for Rio Janeiro), sailed this evening, to cruise to the westward, and afford such supplies to any ships that she may fall in with as their necessities may require.—The Philomel, Camelion, and Bramble, have sailed from Plymouth, on the same-service. His Alajesty's yacht the William and Mary, Captain Cl)hrles Malcolm, put into this port on Thursday, from Dublin, with contrary winds, bound to Deptford, to be paid off and broken up.—The Royal Charlotte yacht is to be cornmissionea by Captain Malcolm, and appropriated to the future service of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The Vansittart, from China, anchored to the eastward Of St. Helen's this morning, and awaits a favourable wind to proceed to the River. The Herald, Captain Leeke, having landed the Marquess and Marchioness of Hastings at Malta, anchored at Gibraltar on the 20th ult. on her return to Spithead. The Eepiegle, IS, Captain Yates, for the West Indies; and the Contest, Lieut. Charles English, for North America, are gone out of harbour, and remain at Spithead, with the Glasgow. The London Papers, which have stated that warlike prepara tions are going on at this port, lave been misinformed. Every public department here is in a . etate Of more profound peace than in any preceding period since the close of the war. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Clarence, Mrs. Fox and her sisters, end the two Misses Fits-Clarence, are expected to arrive at Admiral Sir Geo. Martin's in the course of next week, for the purpose of taking leave of Captain Fitx-Cla rence, whose ship, the Ariatine, will shortly sail for the Mtsliter ranean station.--Hampshire Telegraph. DZYONPORT, MAY 18,—Letters have been received from bon of the 22d ult., stating the arrival in the Tagus of his Ma jesty's ship Genoa, 74, after a Vulgar of nine daye from this port. A Portuguese ship of the line wait in the Tagus ready for sea, and was to proceed to Rio de Janeiro, for the purpose of embark ing the Emperor Don Pedro, if he should wish to return to his native kingdom. A letter has been received at this pert from an officer of the \Varspite, written during his short stay at Teneriffe, which men tions that the crew of that ship had been very sickly during her passage, and that she had lost three men. The gun-room Officers and Midshipmen of the Melville have subscribed two days' pay for the relief of.thealitteseed dintriets. GENERAL ELECTION. TAUNTON.—Mr. Bering and , Mr. 'Warm retire; Mr. Seymour, General Peachey, and Mr. Cresswell, we understand, are candidates. Mr. Seymour's elec tion is spoken of as certain.. CA LLINGTON.—Mr.. Baring, it is understood, will be returned for this place. IPSWICII.—Mr. Lennard retires, and Colonel Tor rens takes his place. MA LDON.—Mr. Lennard offers himself for this Borough. BARNSTAPLE.--The candidates are, Sir F. Orn maney and Mr. Hodgson (the present Members), Mr. Henry Alexander and Mr. Alder Man Atkins : the motto of the Worthy Alderman seems to be " Perse verance," since he has already started three times for the Parliamentary plate on the same course, and been distanced. _ _ PENRYN.—The present Members, Mr. Grenfell and Mr. Stanton, .retire : the candidates are, Mr. Barclay, Mr. Weeding, Mr. Freshfield, and Lord Perceval. The County of Somerset will be contested. Mr. Henry Hunt having offered himself as a « matchless" candidate, has entered on his canvass, and is said to have pre-engaged all the lints at Ilchester against the day of election, in opposition to Sir Thomas Leth bridge., The contest between the Blacking-maker and the Baronet will doubtless be worthy of the parties,. and present an interesting feature in the annals of electioneering— ., When Greek meets Greek, then comes the tug of war." EAST RETroRD.- , -Mr. William Evans retires, Mr. Madocks and Sir Roger Gresley, have been spoken of as the new candidates ; the latter, however, it is said, goes to Evesham. LEICESTER.—Mr. William Evans and Mr. Cave are candidates for this Borough, in the niece of the present Members' who retire. TREGONy.-Doctor Lushington and Mr. Brougham, jun. (the brother of the Barrister), are candidates on the interest of Lord Darlington; Mr. Gordon, and Mr. M'Kellop, on the independent-interest. WELLS.-- - The present Members, Mr. Taylor and Mr. Tudway, are opposed by MrWilliams of Lin colnshire, and Mr. Edwards, the. late Member for Glamorgan. SHOREHAM.—Mr. Sugden offers himself a candi date to succeed Colonel Lloyd, in opposition to the Norfolk interest. BRIDGEWATER—We hear, will not be contested, as reported. READING.--Mr. Spence, a barrister, has united with Mr. Wakefield to oppose the sitting Members. CILIPPENHAM,--1111'. Gye offers himself to suc ceed Mr. Madocks, who retires. PRESTON.—We understand that Mr. Wm. Cob bett is a candidate to represent this borough, into which he is to make - his entry this day. NORT HUMBER LAND ELECTION.—Never were such preparations known, says a letter from Northum berland, as are now making in that county for the " t ug of war," at the approaching general election. The late grand entertainment, given by the Freeholders to Mr. - Beaumont, affords unequivocal proof of the po pularity of that Gentleman, and of the high estimation he is held in by the county ; his return to. Parliament, therefore, may be considered as a matter of certainty. Mr. Bell and. Mr. Liddell are also each supported by influential and powerful parties. They are both very worthy and honourable men, and every way qualified to protect the interests of the county ; but which of the two is to be the victor, along With Mr. 8., it is by no means easy to say. '.owing to a spirit of non accordance amongst the Whigs, it is generally admit ted my Lord flowick has but a slender chance of sitting for Northumberland this election. NORTH SHIELDS. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The Ship-owners- here were quite rejoiced to find that Mr. Beaumont expressed himself in the forcible terms he did, when lie presented their petition to Par liament last week, praying a repeal of the Reciprocity Acts. The Honourable Member, in fact, only spoke the language of truth, when lie assured Mr. Hus kisson that the Shipping Interest here (and the same may be averred of other places) was in a ruinous and distressed state.. However well Ministers intended—and the writer concedes them every credit' for good inten tions, in the first instance—the new system, it is but too manifest, does any thing but work . well. What Mr. Huskisson's ulterior views of the navigation and commerce of the Empire may be I pretend not to an ticipate ; but this I can assure the Right Honourable Gentleman—no palliatives, no half measures will be of any avail : the old navigation laws must in a great de gree be re-enacted, otherwise the British Ship-owner will be involved in misery and ruin. The evidence 'already before us demonstiates but too forcibly the serious injury which the country has sustained by our unwise departure from the maritime code of our an cestors : the President 'of the Board of Trade, there lore, and his colleagues, will do well to lose no time in retracing' their steps with all practicable celerity. Taxed as England is, it is impossible that she can compete with foreigners, who are, comparatively speaking, free from incumbrancc of debt. As a pooh tical writer of some celebrity observes—" The hand of friendship has been extended to foreign nations—it has been refused—they (the Reciprocity . Laws) can not, under these circumstances, be carried into effect without ruin to our commerce and manufactures ; and the proportion of trade we would retain would be trifling ; the dense population, in that case, must also be reduced by famine or the sword—a state of things too dreadful to contemplate." Whatever may be thought of the present crisis by others, it especially becomes his Majesty's allvisers to act with a decision and promptitude consonant to the hi g h interests that are at stake, when the machinery of a great trading com m u nity has got entangled and disarranged. • May 116. ' _ - PROFESSOR DUO A ST.EW ART.--The Royal So ciety of Literature has done honour to itself ill awarding one of its annual medals to our illustrious countryman. " Besides,' thousand guineas s-year, which his Majesty munificently grants to this Midi tution.for the gift of 100 guineas each to ten Royal Associates, the public are aware that another hundred guineas procseds an nually from his princely bounty for two beautiful golden medals to be presented to two distinguished literary characters, as a t ea .. tiniony of respect and admiration lbr their labours. on the present occasion these were voted by the csouuttil to Dugald Stewart, late Professor of Moral Philosophy in Edinhur4h, an author of eminent abilities, and to Professor John Schweiglian *or, of Stmsburgh, whose editions of Appian, Polyhius, Athe. wens, Ilerodotus, &c. &c prove him to he one of the most learned classical scholars a nd acute critics in Europe. .Roth these individuals are far advanced in years; and the appropriation of this year's medals to them must, we think, be very satisfactory ,to th e literary world, and show that the atfairs of the Royal So ciety of Literature are administered in a most candid, a bl e , ell d impartial toanner."..—Scotsotan.
